She returned to college at 45 to earn her teaching credentials and taught elementary school in Bakersfield, CA from 1962-1984. Her one marriage blessed the bubbly redhead with five children.

In 1972 she became caught up with astrology and devoured all that she could find to read and study. In the mid '70s she opened up one of the first metaphysical bookstores in Bakersfield, CA. After being widowed in 1983, she retired from teaching and moved to Arroyo Grande, CA, becoming a professional full-time astrologer.
